    AJ Laser 230z 73" Build Thread

    Correct. Though certain systems may have very high and fine resolution (such as Hitec's 4096 on our 9X and Flash models), you always have to keep in mind that servo resolution does play a part. Standard digitals are only 1024 resolution (Hitec 5xxx series), high resolution is double that at 2048...

    Question: How many people here have WON a DA Engine??

    Gotcha, we were right next to Herve with Spats and Planebender. My only huck for the year will be Lodi, there seems to be a lock of hucking events going on this time of year and I can only plan to attend one, maybe 2. Next years agenda looks like it might be the Black Hills huck along with Lodi.

    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    Will definitely notice a difference compared to the Zippy packs, my 55C TP pack didn't sag at all throughout my flight and came down around 3.8v after 6 minutes of low and slow shenanigans. This pack shouldn't even break a sweat!!

    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    Speaking of which, ThunderPower sent me a NEW 70C Magna today in place of my failed 55C Lightning. I'm pretty stoked about that, needless to say- AND they even fitted an EC5 to the main leads since my old pack had an EC5 on it!!!!! This is why I buy Thunder Power packs, and support Thunder...

    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    On anything this large, I always solder the ESC and motor together, no bullet connectors. I remember a couple buddies of mine from the beginning days of giant scale electrics doing testing on bullet connectors vs directly soldering and they found decreased performance and efficiency when using...

    HS-7955tg

    120* of throw is standard for all Hitec digital servos. If you are not experiencing that amount of control throw then it may be an issue with your setup. If you program them to normal mode rather than high resolution mode you will see lots of jumping in the control movement due to it tuning the...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Straightened out the aileron last night with the assistance of my new dremel (stupid airplanes making me buy more tools......... :oblong::D ). Now onto the rudder. Not pictured is the strips of CF I glued inside of the TE to strengthen that section. She is super strong. Cowl (lurking in the...
